aiui, grub can boot off an LVM, but it was too much for me. I don't even
have / on the lvm.

I'm still not sure what that means, but I went looking for tools (it
seemed like a good time to update my LVM, anyway, since I have two ex-
windows partitions that should be incorporated).
I'm trying out kvpm, now, but there's system-config-lvm for gnome. So,
yes, the desktop supports LVM.
